For anyone out there with even a little knowledge, im looking for;

-Java compiler/SDK (whatever i need to make small programs)

The only needs i have are that it be free and relatively easy to use.

Furthermore i do not formally program, i had taken course in the past but recal very little practicle knowledge.

I want to write a very simple program. I want to write a program that can start at 0 and randomly generate either a +1, -1 or 0...each time asking the user to input the sum...and keep count in the background. I want the user to be able to select how many itterations to do this for and i want to be able to stop watch each session.

A bonus would be at the end a posting of the time, best time, and % of accuracy.

So essentially, flash on the screen +1 lets say, id type in 1, then flash up -1 on the screen, i type in 0, then flash up -1, i type in -1....at the beginning saying i want to do this 100 times. at the end it telling me how far into the itterations i was right or percentage of right answers. (say i mess up at the 40th outta a 100) id like it to tell me.

I can probably dig up segments of code myself and am willing to...but if this is something someone could write in a few mins for me id love you forever.

Thanks.

For Java development I prefer Eclipse http://www.eclipse.org. It is free and powerfull.

For some code I will PM you tomorrow, because here in Germany it is time to go out and meet some girls.

Your awsome man, thanks...i had a problem with eclipse though, i have no clue where to actually paste the code lol...the editor i used to us was essentially a text file so you had only one place to type...this looks a bit more involved.

EDIT: So i managed to save the code as a .java file, then open it in eclipse...how do i go about running it?

Hey Ka, I know a bit of java and I might be able to help you out with this, it looks simple enough. Do you still need this done?

na i got some help with it but i gave up on learning to count cards...thanks anyway

You need a new project to use eclipse

Microsoft has a free version of Visual Studio for college students.
